New Delhi: Kolkata Knight Riders' team was in controversies over a change in the Indian Premier League (IPL) last season. The team management changed the captaincy in the middle of the 13th season of the Indian Premier League (IPL) played in Dubai. Dinesh Karthik left the captaincy, after which the England veteran Oyen Morgan handed the command. Shah Rukh Khan's proprietary team has worked to strengthen its batting in the auction this time. Strong batting can only do the work of balancing in this team with presence of strong bowlers. It will now be interesting to see whether the team that Gautam Gambhir made a two-time IPL winner will be able to perform as the third most successful team in the history of the league in the 14th season or this time too. See the complete list of players who were retained by Kolkata Knight Riders and bought at auction.
